Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
*Boxed set collecting is the fast growing aspect of the toy train-collecting hobby - an estimated 40% of Lionel Train collectors are interested in boxed set

*Train sets with all their original packaging and original set carton command twice the sum of individual components value

One man's trash is another collector's treasure, just take a look at today's growing community of toy train collectors eagerly searching for the boxes toy trains come in. Once the clumsy outer packaging quickly discarded for a prized Lionel Train, boxed sets of postwar Lionel Trains draw focus and favor today among many refined collectors. This beautifully illustrated guide, with 500 photos, includes every catalogued Lionel Train set, complete with current secondary market pricing and packaging information. This book undoubtedly will appeal to your love for Lionel!

5 out of 5 stars WOW !!! what a great book   February 8, 2008
This book is great, fantastic reading about all Lionel train sets and lots of great pictures. This book covers all Lionel O, O27 and Super O made between 1945 and 1969 sets. It also covers in sites to changes from year to year, and also what to look for to alert you to forgeries in many cases. P.S. NO HO

The Standard Catalog of Lionel Trains - Cataloged sets, by David Doyle is a very nice book on Lionel Trains. The photos of the Lionel sets are excellent. Do not miss this book if you love Lionel Trains. Richard Archer


5 out of 5 stars Lionel Trains   September 28, 2007
Anyone interested in Lionel Toy Trains would find this book very interesting. Listings presented with many pictures and a excellent description. There are many pictures showing the original boxes the train sets were in and giving various dates on production. This book is not just numbers and prices. A very good source of information for the collector and train buff.


2 out of 5 stars No HO information at all   September 25, 2007
I found my old HO gauge train set in the attic and wanted to learn more about it. Reading the info about this book you would think it covered all Lionel train sets. The truth is there is info about all sizes except HO. If HO is your interest look elsewhere.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent book for the Lionel Collector!   September 14, 2007
Excellent book, well written for even the most experienced Lionel Collector. I've put together a nice collection of books on Lionel Electric Trains over the years, and this nice work fits right and....and fills a void or two in the other works.

You will enjoy looking through it, and find answers to your questions.
